9:26 pm

9:41 pm
meringue and pine ice. and my favorite combines coconut flesh with coconut water gelee and vivid basil sorbet and african blue basil. i give grace (652 west randolph st.) ....4 stars. grace is the best new restaurant in chicago, and even though it's only february, i don't think i'll change my mind in 10 months. for wgn news and the chicago tribune, this is phil vettel. he went way out on the lam with that one ... the second week in a row a four-star restaurant ... >> for more on this week's restaurant, text phil to: 9 7 9 9 9 ringing in the lunar new year on the west side. next, a special celebration at the garfield park conservatory. and fat tuesday is right around the corner- so you know what that means.... it's paczki time.
